They're there now. Might as well click on them because it supplies us with money and that means that we can continue offering happiness to you all.

Also donate if you can, rk will be back soon and you don't want him to yell at you, do you?

Saw them last night. I'll use the TNR click through from now on whenever I do my newegg shopping!

Same here. I might buy my laptop memory from them. It'll cost me $10 more. Maybe I'll just donate instead.

That's cool KT. Anything reasonable to help balance the budget! And they are reputable sellers.

I have used zip.ca several times and find them of good value for the money.

Question - how do these ads work? I mean, what sort of revenue get generated by these? It's been a while since I've had to pay attention to ad-clicking...

Can something be done from the NR side to bring up clicks in a new window or tab?

I wish I had seen these before I bought my new HD. I would have tried newegg just for TNR =)

So just clicking does nothing - we have to buy something or register for a service for TNR to get a cut?

Guys, these are not adds that provide revenue like google ads. You have to sign up and or buy stuff from these companies or we dont see any revenue. The amount is based on a very low percentage, so it will by no means keep us afloat without donations. Unless of course everyone goes nuts and shops there every month and spends thousands.
